How Many Black Models Were In The September Issues?

VOGUE
Zero black models in a major photoshoot in the feature well.

Halle Berry is on the cover — the first African-American woman on Vogue's September issue since 1989. But she's not a black model. There are black models scattered throughout the issue, but no black model got her own multi-page shoot. Lara Stone got 12 pages to herself. Karlie Kloss also got 12 pages — of just her, alone. Isabeli Fontana is on 8 pages.
